8 Po atë ditë mbreti Asuero i dha mbretëreshës Ester shtëpinë e Hamanit, armikut të Judejve; dhe Mardokeu erdhi para mbretit, të cilit Esteri i kishte shpjeguar se ç’ishte ai për të.
2 Kështu mbreti hoqi unazën që i kishte rimarrë Hamanit dhe ia dhe Mardokeut. Pastaj Esteri e caktoi Mardokeun mbi shtëpinë e Hamanit.
3 Esteri foli akoma para mbretit, ra në këmbët e tij dhe iu lut me lot ndër sy që të pengonte komplotin e keq të Hamanit, Agagitit, dhe planin që ai kishte menduar kundër Judejve.
4 Atëherë mbreti zgjati skeptrin prej ari në drejtim të Esterit; kështu Esteri u ngrit, mbeti në këmbë para mbretit
5 dhe tha: "Në se i duket mirë mbretit, në rast se kam gjetur hir në sytë e tij, në rast se çështja i duket gjithashtu e drejtë mbretit dhe në rast se gjej pëlqim nga sytë e tij, të shkruhet për të revokuar dokumentet e hartuara nga Hamani, bir i Hamedathas, Agagitit, që ai shkroi për të shkatërruar Judejtë që janë në të gjitha krahinat e mbretit.
6 Si do të mund të rezistoja në fakt duke parë fatkeqësinë që do të godiste popullin tim? Ose si do të mund të rezistoja duke parë shkatërrimin e fisit tim?".
7 Atëherë mbreti Asuero i tha mbretëreshës Ester dhe Judeut Mardoke: "Ja, unë i dhashë Esterit shtëpinë e Hamanit, dhe këtë e varën në trekëmbësh, sepse kishte dashur të shtrinte dorën e tij mbi Judejtë.
8 Ju vetë shkruani një dekret në favor të Judejve në emër të mbretit, si t’ju duket më mirë, dhe vuloseni me unazën mbretërore, sepse vendimi i shkruar në emër të mbretit dhe i vulosur me unazën mbretërore është i prerë".
9 Atëherë, më njëzet e tre të muajit të tretë, që është muaji i Sivanit, u thirrën sekretarët e mbretit dhe sipas gjithë atyre që Mardokeu kishte urdhëruar, u dërguan shkrime Judejve, satrapëve, qeveritarëve dhe krerëve të njëqind e njëzet e shtatë krahinave, nga India deri në Etiopi, çdo krahine sipas shkrimit të saj, çdo populli sipas gjuhës së tij, dhe Judejve sipas shkrimit dhe gjuhës së tyre.
10 Kështu ai shkroi në emër të mbretit Asuero, duke vënë vulën me unazën mbretërore, dhe i dërgoi dokumentet me anë të korierëve që ngisnin kuaj të shpejtë, të lindur nga kuaj të racës.
11 Me anë të këtyre dokumenteve u jepej Judejve, në çfarëdo qyteti që të ndodheshin, e drejta të bashkoheshin dhe të mbronin jetën e tyre, duke shkatërruar, duke vrarë dhe duke shfarosur tërë njerëzit e armatosur të çfarëdo populli o krahine që t’i sulmonin, duke përfshirë fëmijët dhe gratë, dhe të plaçkisnin pasuritë e tyre,
12 në një ditë të vetme, në të gjitha krahinat e mbretit Asuero: ditën e trembëdhjetë të muajit të dymbëdhjetë, që është muaji i Adarit.
13 Një kopje e dekretit, i shpallur si ligj në çdo krahinë, duhet të nxirrej për të gjithë popujt, me qëllim që Judejtë të ishin gati për atë ditë të hakmerreshin kundër armiqve të tyre.
14 Kështu korierët të hipur mbi kuaj të shpejtë u nisën të nxitur dhe të shtypur nga urdhri i mbretit; dhe dekreti u nxuar në qytetin e Suzës.
15 Mardokeu doli nga prania e mbretit me një rrobe mbretërore të purpurt dhe prej liri të bardhë, me një kurorë të madhe prej ari dhe një mantel prej pëlhure liri në ngjyrë të kuqe flakë; në qytetin e Suzës dëgjoheshin britma gëzimi dhe ai ishte në festë.
16 Për Judejtë ishte dritë, gëzim, gaz dhe lavdi.
17 Në çdo krahinë dhe në çdo qytet, kudo që arrinte urdhri i mbretit dhe dekreti i tij, për Judejtë kishte gëzim dhe ngazëllim, bankete dhe ditë të lumtura. Dhe shumë nga pjestarët e popujve të vendit u bënë Judej, sepse tmerri i Judejve i kishte zënë.

The King’s Edict in Behalf of the Jews
8 That same day King Xerxes gave Queen Esther the estate of Haman,(A) the enemy of the Jews. And Mordecai came into the presence of the king, for Esther had told how he was related to her. 2 The king took off his signet ring,(B) which he had reclaimed from Haman, and presented it to Mordecai. And Esther appointed him over Haman’s estate.(C)
3 Esther again pleaded with the king, falling at his feet and weeping. She begged him to put an end to the evil plan of Haman the Agagite,(D) which he had devised against the Jews. 4 Then the king extended the gold scepter(E) to Esther and she arose and stood before him.
5 “If it pleases the king,” she said, “and if he regards me with favor(F) and thinks it the right thing to do, and if he is pleased with me, let an order be written overruling the dispatches that Haman son of Hammedatha, the Agagite, devised and wrote to destroy the Jews in all the king’s provinces. 6 For how can I bear to see disaster fall on my people? How can I bear to see the destruction of my family?”(G)
7 King Xerxes replied to Queen Esther and to Mordecai the Jew, “Because Haman attacked the Jews, I have given his estate to Esther, and they have impaled(H) him on the pole he set up. 8 Now write another decree(I) in the king’s name in behalf of the Jews as seems best to you, and seal(J) it with the king’s signet ring(K)—for no document written in the king’s name and sealed with his ring can be revoked.”(L)
9 At once the royal secretaries were summoned—on the twenty-third day of the third month, the month of Sivan. They wrote out all Mordecai’s orders to the Jews, and to the satraps, governors and nobles of the 127 provinces stretching from India to Cush.[a](M) These orders were written in the script of each province and the language of each people and also to the Jews in their own script and language.(N) 10 Mordecai wrote in the name of King Xerxes, sealed the dispatches with the king’s signet ring, and sent them by mounted couriers, who rode fast horses especially bred for the king.
11 The king’s edict granted the Jews in every city the right to assemble and protect themselves; to destroy, kill and annihilate the armed men of any nationality or province who might attack them and their women and children,[b] and to plunder(O) the property of their enemies. 12 The day appointed for the Jews to do this in all the provinces of King Xerxes was the thirteenth day of the twelfth month, the month of Adar.(P) 13 A copy of the text of the edict was to be issued as law in every province and made known to the people of every nationality so that the Jews would be ready on that day(Q) to avenge themselves on their enemies.
14 The couriers, riding the royal horses, went out, spurred on by the king’s command, and the edict was issued in the citadel of Susa.(R)
The Triumph of the Jews
15 When Mordecai(S) left the king’s presence, he was wearing royal garments of blue and white, a large crown of gold(T) and a purple robe of fine linen.(U) And the city of Susa held a joyous celebration.(V) 16 For the Jews it was a time of happiness and joy,(W) gladness and honor.(X) 17 In every province and in every city to which the edict of the king came, there was joy(Y) and gladness among the Jews, with feasting and celebrating. And many people of other nationalities became Jews because fear(Z) of the Jews had seized them.(AA)

Esther 8
King James Version
8 On that day did the king Ahasuerus give the house of Haman the Jews' enemy unto Esther the queen. And Mordecai came before the king; for Esther had told what he was unto her.
2 And the king took off his ring, which he had taken from Haman, and gave it unto Mordecai. And Esther set Mordecai over the house of Haman.
3 And Esther spake yet again before the king, and fell down at his feet, and besought him with tears to put away the mischief of Haman the Agagite, and his device that he had devised against the Jews.
4 Then the king held out the golden sceptre toward Esther. So Esther arose, and stood before the king,
5 And said, If it please the king, and if I have favour in his sight, and the thing seem right before the king, and I be pleasing in his eyes, let it be written to reverse the letters devised by Haman the son of Hammedatha the Agagite, which he wrote to destroy the Jews which are in all the king's provinces:
6 For how can I endure to see the evil that shall come unto my people? or how can I endure to see the destruction of my kindred?
7 Then the king Ahasuerus said unto Esther the queen and to Mordecai the Jew, Behold, I have given Esther the house of Haman, and him they have hanged upon the gallows, because he laid his hand upon the Jews.
8 Write ye also for the Jews, as it liketh you, in the king's name, and seal it with the king's ring: for the writing which is written in the king's name, and sealed with the king's ring, may no man reverse.
9 Then were the king's scribes called at that time in the third month, that is, the month Sivan, on the three and twentieth day thereof; and it was written according to all that Mordecai commanded unto the Jews, and to the lieutenants, and the deputies and rulers of the provinces which are from India unto Ethiopia, an hundred twenty and seven provinces, unto every province according to the writing thereof, and unto every people after their language, and to the Jews according to their writing, and according to their language.
10 And he wrote in the king Ahasuerus' name, and sealed it with the king's ring, and sent letters by posts on horseback, and riders on mules, camels, and young dromedaries:
11 Wherein the king granted the Jews which were in every city to gather themselves together, and to stand for their life, to destroy, to slay and to cause to perish, all the power of the people and province that would assault them, both little ones and women, and to take the spoil of them for a prey,
12 Upon one day in all the provinces of king Ahasuerus, namely, upon the thirteenth day of the twelfth month, which is the month Adar.
13 The copy of the writing for a commandment to be given in every province was published unto all people, and that the Jews should be ready against that day to avenge themselves on their enemies.
14 So the posts that rode upon mules and camels went out, being hastened and pressed on by the king's commandment. And the decree was given at Shushan the palace.
15 And Mordecai went out from the presence of the king in royal apparel of blue and white, and with a great crown of gold, and with a garment of fine linen and purple: and the city of Shushan rejoiced and was glad.
16 The Jews had light, and gladness, and joy, and honour.
17 And in every province, and in every city, whithersoever the king's commandment and his decree came, the Jews had joy and gladness, a feast and a good day. And many of the people of the land became Jews; for the fear of the Jews fell upon them.
